3 years agoTennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said that tight end Anthony Firkser's main role right now is on third down and on special teams. The Titans have been hoping to feature Firkser more in the red zone as well. The Titans were on their bye in Week 13, so perhaps he'll be a bigger part of the passing game on third downs and in the red zone when they return to action in Week 14 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The 26-year-old has 20 receptions for 145 yards and no touchdowns on 28 targets through 10 games this season while losing targets to both MyCole Pruitt and Geoff Swaim. Firkser leads the team's TEs with his 145 receiving yards, but both Pruitt and Swaim have 139 yards apiece and have combined for five touchdowns. Firkser has played over 50% of the offensive snaps just once in 2021 and will remain a TE2 to avoid coming out of the bye.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
